Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inspired to have a child, an FBI Agent and his wife set out to realize their dream, confident in Gods plan. Instead, they would find themselves on a seven-year odyssey of hope and despair. Their journey would lead them down every possible road to conceive a child. Instead, each path led to one heartbreak after another, including the loss of a child through miscarriage. Eventually, they would become the victims of a shocking adoption fraud. Once again, they would stare down at an empty crib realizing it would forever remain empty. Desperation settled into hopelessness as they wondered if they would ever become parents. Still, they held tightly to their faith in God to deliver on a dream they believed he inspired. However, God had a plan to take them down a road they never anticipated. His divine blueprint required them to step out in faith and obedience in their darkest hour. Yet, it was through this journey they would discover that God weaves the threads of our lives, to include our moments of despair, into the tapestry of his grand design. A portion of the sales will be used to fund charitable organizations supporting adoption.

Download or read book Suicide Assessment and Treatment Planning written by John Sommers-Flanagan and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2021-01-12 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This practical guide provides a holistic, wellness-oriented approach to understanding suicide and working effectively with clients who are suicidal. John and Rita Sommers-Flanagans’ culturally sensitive, seven-dimension model offers new ways to collaboratively integrate solution-focused and strengths-based strategies into clinical interactions and treatment planning with children, adolescents, and adults. Each chapter contains diverse case studies and key practitioner guidance points to deepen learning in addition to a wellness practice intervention to elevate mood. Personal and professional self-care and emotional preparation techniques are emphasized, as are ethical issues, counselor competencies, and clinically nuanced skill building. “This engaging book provides considerable insight into the dynamics around suicide, the emotional distress involved, and how counselors can best assist clients while also focusing on their own health and wellness. The Sommers-Flanagans’ strengths-based approach will allow practitioners to connect with their clients and offer understanding and hope when they are most needed.” —Kelly Duncan, PhD, LPC ACES Executive Director “I will read anything that the Drs. Sommers-Flanagan write. This book, however, is one where I took my time and savored each page. Why? Because suicide is emotionally charged, societally and individually taboo, scary, and near the top of the list of more common and feared client experiences. This book treats suicide assessment and treatment in an intelligent, thoughtful, and practical way for clients and clinicians. It humanizes suicidal ideation and, in doing so, helps the reader better understand how to truly care for those in distress.” —Matt Englar-Carlson, PhD California State University, Fullerton About the Authors John Sommers-Flanagan, PhD, is a professor of counseling at the University of Montana and the author or coauthor of more than 100 professional publications.
